Answer 2

`24-4x`

Explanation:

We have been given that Niu has decorated x cards. He started with 24 stickers and he used 4 stickers per card. So stickers used in x cards will be 4x.

As initial number of stickers was 24, so we can find number of stickers left after decorating x cards by subtracting number of stickers used in x cards from 24.

`\text{Number of stickers that Niu has left}=24-4x`

Therefore, the expression
`24-4x` will represent the number of stickers that Niu has left after decorating x cards.
